While that is true, I believe that more relevant analogy is C-x b
C-f with ido-mode disabled. It opens the buffer at head of
list (default buffer).
I generally expect C-j to be interchangeable with <RET> in most
contexts since j is right under my index finger, thus easier to
press than <RET>. Especially in tasks used as often as
switching/killing buffers.
I guess that is the main point. Even with C-x C-f C-j example C-j
behaves like <RET> and that is the expected behavior.
